I have just posted a candidate patch set to fix this bug:

http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/quilt-dev/2012-10/msg00004.html
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/quilt-dev/2012-10/msg00005.html

I have opted for a hard-coded alternative name (quilt_patches) instead of a random-number-based one, it was easier and should work just fine in practice.

When source tarball contains directory patches, quilt setup does not work correctly. Creating symlink patches fails and it is not able to find the correct patches. I would suggest to use some autogenerated directory name if patches is already taken (something like patches.quilt.13471).
